Ok about to build up a new set of wheels for my Crosscheck so will be doing some touring and cyclocross duties.
I was thinking of some Salsa Delgardo Cross rims, but they are only in 36hole and I have 32 hole hubs. So which 700c 32 hole rim?
So do I go with Open pros? Open Sports? CXPs? What please help and where from?

Open pros or CXP22s would be my choice depending on how light/durable you want to go.

Just been through the same process and it's TK7.1s. No idea if they are good yet

I've only broken one. TBF wrecked the forks at the same time......

I love CXP 33s, not much heavier than Open pros, much stronger, nicer ride quality and big braking surfaces- important to consider when your pads are wearing a little.

Ive got A719's. Wider so you get a better profile for cross and can handle some serious abuse on a fully loaded touring bike. Open pro's are probably good enough, but depends on how heavy your likely to go when touring.

I hope the answer is Open Pro, coz that's what I've ordered for my new tourer,

Salsa Delgardos can be bought in 32H - built up a couple of pairs of them - great rims, build up really strong and not too heavy. Try Billy's for stock. Rigida Sputniks from spa cycles are also a great vfm touring rim that I've used as a tough pair of cross rims too - but they might be 36H only.
